Etihad Etisalat "Mobily", PSU, and SAP global company, signed the strategic partnership agreement to launch the second batch of the (Mobily SAP) training program for employment, which is one of the approved programs of King Salman bin Abdulaziz for Education for Employment.

The agreement was signed in the presence of Mr. Melfi Al Marzoqi; Acting Senior Executive Officer HR Center of Excellence, Dr. Ahmed bin Saleh Al-Yamani PSU Director, and Mr. Bill McDermott, CEO of SAP Global Company.

This program is a result of Mobily’s tireless efforts to contribute to the development of the Saudi universities graduates and to help them get job opportunities in all parts of the Kingdom and keep away the unemployment specter. Mobily considers the youth employment issue as one of the main strategic objectives of its programs to serve the community.

Mobily provides the financial and technical support for the program, while SAP will provide a number of advantages for the distinguished university graduates, which is reflected in one year period participation in SAP Learning Hub Customer Edition, which is a cloud software platform allowing access to full package of training from SAP including training topics and courses on the Internet. The rest of the graduates also benefit from participation in the SAP Learning Hub Student Edition.

Mobily and SAP already celebrated in September last year the graduation of the first batch of graduates of the program consisting of 37 graduates from PSU, after having completed successfully the intensive training program of the Academy over a period of 30 weeks.

It is worth mentioning that King Salman program of education for employment is one of the distinctive programs of the PSU Center of Community Services & Continuing Education Center which is under the patronage of the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques King Salman bin Abdulaziz Al Saud. PSU is the official umbrella for this noble program under direct supervision by HH Prince Dr. Abdulaziz bin Mohammed bin Ayyaf, Vice-President of the Riyadh Philanthropic Society for Sciences. It is a program that specializes in the rehabilitation of the graduates from Saudi universities of boys and girls who are suffering difficulties in getting a job as a result of lack of skills, where this program helps them to obtain global professional certification through six academies that were created in collaboration with a number of leading local and international agencies.
